Best tasting menu in Portland. Had all of them and this is always the best / most consistent. Love the menu changes and love all the bites here. Their sister restaurants are all fantastic too including Phuket which shares this space!

Amazing set course meal. Get ready for flavor explosions in your mouth. We gushed at every bite. One dish was terrible, tasting like a latrine. But the rest was phenomenal!

First of all, this is not a typical dining experience. They are working very hard to provide a creative, upscale, and authentic Thai food experience that is on another level from what you can get on a regular basis. The flavors are not tailored to an American palate.It is also quite expensive, one of the more expensive restaurants I have eaten at. The food is very good and the experience is unique, but be warned it is extremely expensive. Our bill came to almost 500 dollars for 2 people.I feel like it's also worth noting that some of the food is very spicy. Thai food is spicy, so this is a good thing, but be ready. This is a tasting menu, so you can't really substitute or order other things if you can't eat spicy food.Lastly, I was somewhat disappointed in the wine pairing. The cocktails here are exceptional, though, so next time, I would try those for the money you would spend on the wine pairing. Just my two cents, but if you prefer wine with dinner, get the wine pairing.

Langbaan ? 3.5 starsA special tasting menu at select times inside Phucket Cafe. Inspired by IssanLet me start by saying everything on the menu was good but the main dishes didn’t really agree with my palate so for the price I’ll take Phucket Cafe. The appetizers and desserts I would fight a pack of wild Yorkies for on a daily basis! Service, atmosphere and portions were perfect.Kanom Krock (scallops in lemongrass coconut cream) is something I’ve never experienced but wish I could every day of my life. Simply amazingRice Khao Lam (sticky rice pudding with strawberries) was the perfect blend of savory and sweet and added a refreshing end to a perfectly portioned meal.Also they were so accommodating for food allergies (you HAVE to let them know a few days in advance)Overall ⭐️⭐️⭐️ (and a half)Service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Atmosphere ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️@langbaanpdx#travelportland #pdxeater #pdx #portland #restauranteurexplorators #eats #pdxfoodbloggers #portlandoregon

5 stars all around! The amount of love, identity, thought and detail that go into curating the dining experience that is Langbaan, is a unique and very special gastronomic adventure. From the Kanin Krak (scallop), Tom Prape (salmon), Gang Pai (brisket in cha om leaf curry) to the Rice Khao Lam (sticky rice pudding + fixins), your tastebuds are in for a treat that takes dining to an entire new level, another world and culture of flavor! Plus, they really care about the visuals - they made beets look like blood! March was the month highlighting Isaan, the chef’s hometown in Northern Thailand, we really get a taste of his childhood, very nostalgic.I look forward to the month where the menu is unapologetically Thai! I’m talking bile, blood, tripe, and all of the authenticity that makes Thai cuisine so bold and flavorful. I appreciate how thoughtful the chefs are when designing the menu. I encourage customers to be open to the Thai food scene, in all its forms!! I have no doubt that Langbaan will always put heart and soul into their menu. Thank you to the entire staff for their hospitality and for an exceptional dining experience for my birthday and anniversary!

If you want to go to a family friend’s house for an intimate, authentic Thai dinner with fun ingredients and presentation look no further. The food was beyond amazing and everything had such depth of flavor. The broths alone stole the show. Everything was fresh and balanced, and it was informative learning from the staff about regional thai cuisine.

The first three appetizers were tasty and interesting, but then everything went down hill. There was a disgusting green soup/broth that smelled like sewage full of fatty brisket. It overwhelmed every other dish on the table. Servers were on point but kind of long winded and cheesy with food stories.

We enjoyed a fixed menu filled with great attention to detail in a very comfortable space. Outside the amazing service the highlights were the soup, scallops, and the Mochi dessert. A few items didn't really stand out. The crab and pork croquettes were dry and seemed overcooked, the oysters lacked any meat, and we were disappointed with the sticky rice as it was low on flavor and the rice was dry, lacking sticky or sweetness. The cocktail menu left us wanting a little, too but we'll chalk that up to preference. We both prefer dryer cocktails. We ended up with some great wine pairings!

Food and team were amazing. They should not have the last 2 chairs at bar used, had to wear coats all night and too close to staff coming and going.

Taiwanese food has a high-end feel. The ordinary shellfish has the original taste of seafood but is not fishy, ​​juicy and not salty. I really like it!Kid-friendliness: Hear the laughter of hilarious children!

This is probably one of the best value when it comes to tasting menu. The food was absolutely amazing. Out of the 12ish dishes we had, my boyfriend and I both agreed that other than 2 of them we’d rate 3 stars, the rest were 5 stars. This is our 2nd tasting menu experience in a week. The other one (won’t mention restaurant name here but it’s in my other review) was terrible comparing to Langbaan. We will definitely go back. Already reserved Phuket Cafe for next week.
